Auction Product Type

[janellez]

I have a problem in that the "Buy Now" button is displaying in the category/product listing page - even though I have this set to zero under the Configuration menu and haven't specified a Buy It Now price in the item listing. Right now, anyone can put an item in their cart and pay for it - at whatever the auction price is now.

Any ideas on how I can solve this?

Thanks,

Janelle

You know, actually, I just turned off that box for the whole site on the listing pages. Maybe it's what you have to do if you're running auctions? Anyway, it will work for us.

Also, maybe I'm missing it, but is there a plan to or has anyone come up with more of an "auction admin" mod so that my client can see who the winners are to track them down if necessary? I don't want to have to delve into the database every time an auction closes.

Thanks!

I have this mod installed... everything seems ok... but for some strange reason no products are showing up in my auction category.

when i click on the link for auctions i get a blank page and the message:

Sorry, the product was not found.

cant figure out what i am missing. what file controls the product display and why are they not showing??

sorry if this sounds dumb,,,,
did you create a cat called Auctions , turn it on, then add items making them available date wise and also enable them?
you could send a link to your site

Yes... i have a cat called "products up for auction"... i have one product in the category and it is enabled and the date available was set correctly.

The reason i asked which file controls that page b/c i had modified the tpl_modules_product_listing page and thought that might have been the problem. I have other mods installed so i made sure any code that did not match was added to this new mod.

One more thing.... if i add a product to the auction category and NOT SET it as an auction item... it will show up.... not only will it show up... but the other product that was SETUP AS AN AUCTION PRODUCT will now display.... but when i click on the product that is up for auction... it will still not display.

I am sure this has something to do with all the other mods i have on this site... has anyone else ran into this problem???

Could this have anything to do with Simple SEO URL???

Here's why i ask....

The URL for the NON auction product i have listed under auctions category is this:
http://www.cctvimports.com/products-...en-clock-p-980

and the URL for the product i have SET FOR AUCTION under auctions category is this:
http://www.cctvimports.com/product_a...-auction-c-254

notice how at the end of the url it is duplicated (products-up-for-auction-c-254/products-up-for-auction-c-254)

could that be my problem why the product is not displaying??? I know there is a way to exclude pages from SEO, but i am not sure what page i would exclude.
